Mixed Reactions as Nursing Trainee Allowances for September and October Finally Disbursed
In a surprising turn of events, the much-anticipated Nursing Trainee Allowances for the months of September and October have been reportedly disbursed, causing a stir among students and the public alike.
Multiple sources confirm that the Ministry of Health – Health Training Institutions (MOH – HTI) recently issued a statement to trainees, stating, “Dear Trainee, your September and October allowance of 800 GHS has been paid to your e-zwich card. You may load funds, thank you.”
This development follows former President John Mahama’s public call on the government to address the prolonged delay in allowance payments, with students reaching out to him to voice their grievances about not receiving allowances for two years.
Venting their frustration, a student exclaimed, “For the past 2 years, not even a single cedi has been paid to nurses.” Questions were raised about the payment approach, with some students perplexed by the leap from paying January to March to settling the allowances for September and October, skipping the months in between.
While this news is a relief for many, some express discontent. Criticism includes queries about the timing of payments, especially considering we are approaching December. Some even argue that the September and October payments might be arrears from the previous year (2022) rather than the current year (2023).
The ripple effect of this development extends to other groups eagerly awaiting their dues. NABCO Trainees are reportedly waiting for their 9 months’ arrears, and teacher trainees are also anticipating the disbursement of their allowances, mirroring the recent success of the nursing trainees.

However, not everyone shares the joy. University students, in particular, express dissatisfaction, questioning the inequality in allowance distribution. Some argue that while certain groups receive allowances, others are forced to take loans to survive, raising concerns about the rationale behind introducing the allowance system. They question why some Ghanaian students receive financial aid while others resort to student loans for education, sometimes for the same qualification or even a superior one.
